APPLE AND WALNUT HAROSETH

This very classic Ashkenazi haroseth, which is a ceremonial part of the Passover Seder, is made from diced apple, toasted walnuts, a touch of cinnamon and a shower of sweet Passover wine. It's meant to represent the mortar used by the Israelites when they were slaves in Egypt. The sweeter the apples you use, the less honey you'll need to add at the end. But tart apples are nice here, too, as long as you balance their acidity. If you can't get Manischewitz or another sweet Passover wine, ruby port is a fine substitute. You can make this haroseth one day ahead and store it in the refrigerator; just mix it well before serving to reincorporate any liquid that might have seeped out of the mix.

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. Spread walnuts on a rimmed baking sheet and toast in the oven, stirring once or twice, until fragrant and golden-brown at the edges, about 10 minutes. Transfer baking sheet to a wire rack to cool.
  • Finely chop the nuts and place in a large bowl. Add remaining ingredients and toss to coat. Let sit for at least 30 minutes before serving. Taste and add more honey and cinnamon, if you'd like.

HAROSETH WITH CHESTNUTS, PINE NUTS, PEARS AND DRIED FRUITS

Haroseth was served for Passover at Seders in Roman times, if not earlier, and versions exist all over the world, adapted for the fruits and nuts available. This recipe from Italy contains no spices, relying instead on a vibrant mix of fresh and dried fruit for flavor - so use the ripest and sweetest you can find.
